Oh, goodness, that’s hilarious. We need to do it at the very end when everyone has included their sentences. xD

Here’s an updated version with @joy-caroline line in it;

I was relieved that it was a mime instead of a traditional clown, then I wouldn’t have to be caught up in some unfunny joke that he wanted to play on me. She would s…[Read more]

From a project I work on sometimes when I’m bored but have no intention of ever doing anything with:

River stepped into her room and hastily drew the locks, only releasing a sigh of relief after she’d done so.

@elfwing Seeing them combined was super fun!

@elfwing

Hello Iris! Or would you prefer Elwing? Either are awesome:)
I guess I am pretty late here in welcoming you to Kingdom Pen, BUT they say it’s better late than never so welcome! 😀
Your WIP sounds amazing, (I also love griffins, dragons, and phoenix, but sadly don’t get to add them in my current WIP, *shrugs* oh well:)
Okay, judging by y…[Read more]

@elfwing Haha, I love that!!!!!🤣🤣

@elfwing

Aww! Poor Daphne… :'(

Well, thank you! Yes, it is pretty awesome. Especially when it affects so many people… 😛 Ah, yes, the dragon, the one who must always die. Lovely quote, btw. And I agree with every single one of your points. 😀

Very glad to have been able to put in my two cents! Hope it helped. I’ll see you around the forum! 😀

This thread has been really fun to read! Sadly, I’ve never written a proposal scene before and I am not likely to write one any time soon 🙁 Only one pair of my characters canonically get married and its technically after the story ends. Maybe I could add in a…[Read more]

@elfwing

Oh, that’s a good line… Kudos to your friend!

Ah, I see. Poor guy… Poor family… That sounds like a great scene though!

*jaw drops* WOW. That sounds awesome!!! XD Agghhhh, that’s such an intriguing story. In my book, it’s one of the MC’s father’s best friends (someone the MC looks up to) who betrays them, one of the MC’s sister’s…[Read more]

@elfwing

Thank you for all that feedback I will work on it

@elfwing

*sighs happily again* Oh my… Teary, emotional scenes with men in them? You have seriously just described one of my all-time favorite scenes to write. XD

As Elizabeth and JC said, I don’t think it weakens the manliness of a man to show him crying. I know I enjoy a good emotional scene involving guys… 😛 Anyway, I feel like that…[Read more]

@elfwing

Thank you, that does kind of help, but she’s actually 18, not a ‘child.’ And she believes that refusing to rule would be considered treason.

That helps me with background for another character, though, so thanks! 😀

@elfwing Whoa, that sounds amazing! Reminds me vaguely of this movie I once watched called Maquia…

Is your main character part of the Silyans?

@elfwing

True, tears are needed for some things! 🙂 I prefer to use other actions than crying, but I do need to fall back on tears for especially emotional scenes.

No problem, I love sharing my “immense” wisdom I’ve gained from my whole 14 years of life on this earth. xD

@elfwing

I’m a little late BUT I’VE COME TO HELP! *pulls out binder of writing advice*

*skims through index* Ah, here we are, showing emotions. Crying isn’t always the best way to show sadness, and it’s not just an action used to show sadness. Tears are just little packages of emotion that your body sends out when it’s overwhelmed with emotion.…[Read more]

@elfwing Anything you want! Here’s to discussing whatever aspect of your WIP you want to discuss.

@elfwing Oh this is such a good topic! Tears can be so difficult to write, for sure.

I don’t necessarily have a ton to add (Lydia and JC have covered the topic amazingly), though I will say that I rarely if ever read a guy character crying as wimpy–it can honestly be quite refreshing to see one cry, because it’s both strangely unusual to find i…[Read more]

@elfwing Ey thanks! I’ll take a look at it soon!

@elfwing

*sighs happily* Emotional scenes!!! I love them… 😛

So, a thesaurus is a great place to start when searching for verbs and phrases that describe emotion well (The thesaurus on my computer is my constant companion and regular helper. You might want to consider double-checking the meanings if you use a word from there though, just to…[Read more]

@elfwing Hi! My name’s Grace (you can call me Kadotake if you want though, it’s my online alias 😄). Great to have you here on the forum! Ahh, a fellow Tolkienite!! I love LoTR and The Hobbit (ahh but I’m still stuck like 3/4 of the way through the Two Towers since it’s so long. Hngh. 🥲) And- WHAT? A FELLOW DUCK PERSON??? I have quite a few ducks,…[Read more]
